History of the Organization :-
Journey of this organization started from 2001. A small group of young people started to dream to do
some social works. The first step was a little magazine to aware people for social change naming ” Unmader Pathakram” means “Lunatic syllabus of young people”. Then we started another little magazine naming“Uttar Dakshin” means “Grass root connection between North Bengal and South Bengal”. Where we focused the contemporary various topics like violation of Human Rights, forest conservation and Land Movements etc throughBengali Poem, Story, Article and Colummns.
In the year 2006 we got a survey work in the district Dakshin Dinajpur related to ‘Backward Village Study’monitoring by North Bengal University and sponsored by SRD. This major break in our social activity inspired us toset up an NGO (Society). Finally we got registration of our society on 20th Dec’2007 in the name of “Ujjiban Society forSocial Economic Environmental & Rural Development” under West Bengal Socities Registration Act XXVI of 1961.

We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked, and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved, and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.
